+++Hi Gail. 240 is definitely not high cholesterol. Women can have

1,000 total cholesterol and still be perfectly healthy, with no heart

problems, which is according to the Weston A. Price Foundation. In

fact cholesterol levels are a total non-issue when it comes to

health - see the real cause of heart disease:

+++Also when your body detoxifies cholesterol levels will naturally

increase, and thyroid problems caused by candida will also make

cholesterol readings higher.

-------Bee, thank you. This is so scary, I have always been taught to

keep the level under 200, but I will trust you on this one.

I'm not sure what spun my thyroid out of control years ago, but I now

know that I had Candida, and feel it was related.

Again, Bee thank you and you take it easy.

+++Hi Gail. I understand how difficult it is to overcome such

thinking. Did you know that the drug/medical industry has also been

purposely lowering acceptable cholesterol levels in order to sell more

drugs? According to Enig, PhD, of the Weston A. Price Foundation,

acceptable levels, before the cholesterol scam, were 350. Also

cholesterol tests can be very inaccurate, which can simply be because

the person is stressed when their blood is being taken.

+++Also, we must all know/realize that the drug and medical industries

are businesses, so profits and money come before our health!

+++Candida is not the only thing that could cause thyroid or other

organ malfunctions, since all toxins make the cell membranes

rigid/stiff, not just candida toxins. We are overloaded with toxins

these days, and since the general consensus is against " good " saturated

fats our bodies aren't as able to get rid of toxins. These fats, along

with other nutrients, i.e. omega 3, vitamins A, D & E, minerals,

protein from meats & eggs, etc. all work together to cleanse the entire

body, strengthen every cell, and even help the body get rid of heavy

metals.

+++All cell membranes must be constructed out of 50% saturated fat

(lung cells require 100%) in order to be healthy. Otherwise the cells

are weak, take in more toxins, and they are less able to get rid of

their own waste.

+++You are welcome Gail. Have a great Holiday!

Hi.  What about if your triglycerides are 400?  Is this dangerous?  Why would

they be that high if something wasn't wrong?

Thanks,

Rhonda

Hi Rhonda. Dr. Mercola says that if your triglyceride levels are

elevated, it likely represents a severe abnormality of insulin balance

in your body, and it is very important to lower them, and the cause of

high triglyceridesis is a high carbs and not enough " good " fats. See

this article:

http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2003/10/25/carbs-

triglycerides.aspx

It is very common for candida sufferers to have higher levels of

triglycerides, which will definitely lower as you progress on this

program. In the meantime don't be concerned.
